Skip Hire London: Wait and Loads

Councils: you either love ‘em or hate ‘em. Skip hire London is getting trickier, now borough councils have decided to put another spanner in the works by now needing permission before a wait and load service is carried out.

A wait and load service is when there is no where to place the skip, and not enough time to apply for a permit. We pull up with the skip and help the customer fill the skip with the waste that they have acquired. The service is normally half and hour and we drive off. However, now skip hire London councils are now saying that they demand that permission should be sought before any such service takes place.

Why?

Is there ever a good reason why with councils?

However, this doesn’t stop us from doing them, so if you do need a wait and load service, or need us to obtain a skip permit for you, make sure you ring the TopSkips team on 0845 201 3040.

Skip Hire Hammersmith

Just had a call for skip hire Hammersmith for tomorrow morning. There would be no problem with this, but the customer didn’t have a driveway to plonk the skip on, and therefore would need a skip permit.

To make matters worse, the customer’s council is Hammersmith and Fulham, a council that seems to take pleasure in making the permit application process as drawn out and costly as possible.

So, in the end, we couldn’t actually do it. The customer is organising the paperwork with the council first, and then will ring us when (if?!) the permit arrives.

Celebrity Skip Hire Customer 4

Introducing our celeb skip hire customer number 4 and enfant terrible of the modern art world, Mr Damien Hirst.

He was after skip hire London and we delivered a skip to his offices in central London. I told the driver who picked the skip up to look out for any discarded masterpieces that we could flog on ebay, but the skip was just full of brickwork and plaster. Not particularly glamorous, but we’re grateful that Hirst chose Topskips for his waste disposal needs!
